I had two on the fly rod, one early on a senko to test the water. Lots of fish there, but I made two big mistakes-first, my popper was too big and it was a slider not a popper and that seemed to matter; second, I fished the game changer about half the time and didn't get a bump-it doesn't want to get down. Towards the end, I went ahead and tied on my favorite artculated streamer and promptly caught a decent fish. Then a fallfish. Then we were done. Going back again soon. I expect better results. I missed a half dozen, one really nice. I've been in a slump. I think Afish is a cooler.

That, and I was the oarsman. And I'm old and have a kid. And the sun was in my eyes.

Afish is like an Arctic wind to my fish mojo. Still one of the best to fish with. At least he catches when we go. If I had managed to hook the fat bass that tried to eat my dragonfly (it was too big-couldn't fit in its mouth-he pushed it a foot across the water), I would have been more pleased.

I'm thinking the best way to fish GCs is to use a sinking line. Or at least an intemediate. I'm currently tying up some depth-charge heavy streamers to get down in faster water. I need to get deeper in the stronger currents. I'll be doing some beta testing either on the Delaware or the Juniata at some point this week.
